Reds4Life 51 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 Nicklas Lidstrom reminds Tomas Holmstrom of his dear old Swedish grandfather. That sounds like it's a slight on Lidstrom -- the guy only just turned 39 -- but as with so many other comments about the guy the Red Wings call "the perfect human" it really isn't. Advertisement "In all the years I've known Nick," Holmstrom said, "I've maybe heard him raise his voice three times. My grandpa's calmer than Nick, but he's 80 years old." .. .. .. http://www.freep.com/article/20090519/SPOR.../905190354/1048 And he is Red Wings' new playoff assists leader, passing former captain Steve Yzerman.

From the Yahoo recap: Detroit captain Nicklas Lidstrom’s assist on Rafalski’s goal was his 116th in the playoffs, moving him ahead of Steve Yzerman and into first place on the Red Wings’ career list. He tied Larry Robinson for fourth among defenseman on the NHL list. Go Lids!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dat's sick 1,002 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 And he is Red Wings' new playoff assists leader, passing former captain Steve Yzerman. And what a great pass it was. Lids is the king. It feels strange to think of the day he will no longer be on the team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest micah Report post Posted May 20, 2009 Yed, he is a cyborg. A hockeybot. Dude is somehow always in opsition. Scores more than most offensive minded DMen and is as solid on D as anyone in the league. One of the all time greats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The tagline is a little over the top considering Nick's personality, but it's such a great line from the movie I had to use it.
